Arabic and Islamic Studies Department of the Government College University (GCU) organized one-day “Rehmatallil Alameen (PBUH) Conference” in connection with the university’s 150 years celebrations on Tuesday

Prof Rahman in his address said Islam is the solution to every problem. He said: “Scientists and researchers should consult the Holy Quran and take guidance from it in their research work.” He highlighted the contributions of Muslim scientists, like Ibn Al-Haytham, Al-Farabi, Ibn Sina and Al-Khazini

Prof Dr Muhammad Saad Sadiqui, giving the reference of Michael H. Hart’s book “The 100, a Ranking of the Most Influential Persons in History”, said that he gave Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) first number in the ranking of most influential persons in the history of human being.

Prof Saad quoted Michael Hart, “My choice of Muhammad (PBUH) to lead the list of the world’s most influential persons may surprise some readers and may be questioned by others, but he was the only man in history who was supremely successful on both the religious and secular levels.”

Prof Dr Hafiz Mehmood Akhtar said Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) gave us life-long teachings of the ethics, culture and values. He said before Islam, the Arabs were ignorant, but the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) changed their lives and the world as well

In the end, Vice Chancellor Prof Dr Khaleeq-ur-Rahman presented bouquets and gifts to the guest speakers
